Don't Say Baby - Shower Game

Don't Say Baby

Each guest receives a clothes pin (bracelet, necklace with pacifiers on them, pieces of wrapped candy or other small items) as they arrive and explain to the guests only once: If you catch someone saying the word 'Baby' you get to take their clothes pin. The first person to say can I have the clothes pin (name of item) receives the clothes pin/item. Often you will have someone say “You said baby give me your clothes pin”, when they just said baby too! The one with the most pins at the end of the shower wins.

Game Decision:
Decide before the baby shower whether someone can steal all or just one clothes pin if they hear them say the word baby.

I like the idea of one at a time because it keeps more people in the game, however when someone has 5 or 10 pins it is pretty impressive to see people work hard to try and trick that person into saying “Baby.” 

Variations:
Change the word (to suit event) and play at Bridal Showers or any social gathering.
